New Amex statement credits

[prozac]

Has anyone tested buying a HN GC this time round and had success receiving the $50 credit?
Do they get antsy when you produce multiple Amex cards?

Does HN sell visa gift cards? I remember agessss ago they did?

Yes

I've not seen them in many years.

Amex have introduced a new benefit called MyAmexShop which looks like a cashback site. It is somewhat underwhelming. Stores involved listed here;

It's not many stores yet but the cash back is very high compared to other cash back sites.

Still underwhelming

Only for “new” customers. If you click through the returning customers is much lower. Yes 12.5% for new customer is very high.

Tested 2 cards today with GC purchase and received an acknowledgement email with the following qualification;

Thank you for using your Harvey Norman Amex Offer with your Card ending in xx_XX

If your transaction meets the offer terms, your redemption should appear on your statement within 15 business days (however it can take up to 90 days from the offer end date).

A bit concerned about this getting past the batsman.

I asked today at HN and they said they did not.

I think they are standard caveats. What GCs did you buy?

Hardly Normal only sell one GC being their own.

 

[tinkybelle]

yes sorry I didn't see the visa part but yes happy to buy HN cards as they certainly price match anything Ive ever bought

There are some third party GC's but probably store dependent. Fyshwick (CBR) had Luxury Escapes, Red Balloon, some gaming ones and few others when I looked at the start of the promo.

Used another 3 Amex cards to purchase 3 HN GCs yesterday. No acknowledgement email this time.

I can confirm credit has posted for first batch of HN GC's purchased.

Finally a cashback I can use but got it on none of my cards My +1 did get it so I better call and enquire.

Placies is good - you can use it - previously received it on all 3 cards (Plat Reserve CC, Rewards Advantage Charge and Plat Charge) but only got it on Plat Reserve CC this time around :-((

I have never tried -are the prices quoted on the app fixed or just estimates that always turn out 20% higher when the fare gets charged?

Generally pretty close to price quited, and IME cheaper than scammy Uber

I tried to use it the first time there was an AMEX offer but left me scratching my head but subsequently have used it with success. I don’t have Didi or Ola - so that was an impediment but it came in handy booking a regular cab using 13CABS when the rideshares were surge pricing.
